This weekend I finally made the plunge. I will be mounting beetles to use as an inspiration and subject for macro photography. These beetles will make much better subjects than live ones to learn and practice the craft of 'stacking'. I really am taking my macro shooting up a notch with this 
To aid me in this pursuit I ordered a beetle mounting kit for beginners. It comes complete with five beautiful large beetles of various species, instructions and everything I need to get started. I found it in one of my favorite shops on etsy. Check it out!

Sigma Lens
Last year was pretty dismal as far as macro photography for me. My beloved macro lens of at least a decade of being ridden hard gave up the ghost. However, my stepmom really stepped up for me when Christmas time came. She simply asked me which lens I needed and then ordered it from Adorama. Yayness!! We both benefitted... me on getting a new lens and her by getting me a Christmas present at 50% off on Black Friday. Click to see it here it is in this photo. It's a beauty. I cant wait til spring rolls around allowing me to go on a spider hunt. This thing has almost too many bells and whistles but to start off I can just use it in a rudimentary fashion. I CANNOT WAIT!!!

Self Publishing
I've recently come across a platform that looks like an excellent candidate for assisting me to self publish. It costs nothing to set up and they assign your work a free ISBN #. The only time they charge or even print for that matter is when a book is purchased. The only upfront cash I need to shell out is for a month or two subscription to Acrobat Pro to enable me to format the proper pdf file required of the project. For that I hope to use the upcoming second stimulus check if such a thing ever arrives.
The company is lulu.com. They handle evering thing required of a publisher including sales across theirs and other websites such as
